- Homework: Answer the rest of the questions in exercise 3.2. (questions 6-34, passages 2-4)
- Compare your answers with your partner. Try to convince them of your answers if you disagree.
- 6 B
- 7 C
- 8 A
- 9 A
- 10 B (Families that have a common origin are called Hiruzama asteroids, but this isn’t all families.)
- 11 B (The first two theories are not what people believe any more.)
- 12 A (It was discovered in July of 2002, and the year followed by two letters is a temporary name. A different asteroid, 2002 Euler, was the 2002nd to be discovered.)
- 13 D (This is a permanent name, so the number is the order of discovery. Eros is a god, not a goddess.)
- 14 A (“Even after these names were used up” means the mythological names were used up sooner, so some of the first 333 are other female names.)
- 15 C

- 16 B
- 17 A (C may also be true, but can’t be inferred from the information in the text.)
- 18 A (“leaking out into the loose rock” is what would happen without geyserite, so it prevents water from passing through. A hot spring has geyserite but is not a geyser.)
- 19 D
- 20 C
- 21 B
- 22 A (A volcano is mentioned because the geyserite “looks like” one, so it has a similar shape.)
- 23 D (Geysers with open pools are fountain geysers, and Old Faithful is a columnar or cone geyser.)
- 24 A (They “still retain” the word “field”, so they have been in operation since the time when that was common.)
- 25 C
- 26 C
- 27 A
- 28 B
- 29 C
- 30 A
- 31 D
- 32 B
- 33 C
- 34 D

- - Sometimes it’s probably helpful to take notes on a large paragraph in a reading passage, to simply the information and make sure you understand it.
- first discovered = temp name, like 2006 AC
- year + 2 letters (half-month and order)
- then - permanent name
- number (of discovery) + name, like 1 Ceres or 334 Chicago
- mythological females
- all females until 334 Chicago

- Listening Section:
- - two or three sets of listenings, which can be long or short (one long and one or two short sets)
- long set = 1 conversation (5Q), 1 lecture (6Q), 1 discussion (6Q); 10 minutes to choose answers
- short set = 1 conversation, 1 lecture or discussion; 6.5 minutes to choose answers
- - you’ll listen only once, followed by questions
- - you cannot return to earlier questions after you click “next”
- - You will read and hear each question, and the timer continues after the answer choices appear
- - On the official test, you will have to click “next” and then click “confirm” in order to move on

- Listening Question Types:
- - main idea (topic or purpose)
- - detail/fact
- - attitude
- - replay (function)
- - inference
- - purpose
- - complete a chart or table
- - prediction

- 3 No
- 4 Yes
- exercise L19 - Choose the correct answer to each inference question.
- 1 B
- 2 D
- 3 A
- 4 B

- exercise L20 - Listen to parts of conversations or lectures and answer the questions in your own words
- 1 She is or plans to be an art major.
- 2 Those are low-tech toys that children don’t lose interest in, because they can be anything.
- 3 It’s an opportunity to hear regional Spanish accents, and it’s a chance to be exposed to Spanish outside the class.

- Oxford p. 231 - pre-listening questions
- In British English, a university faculty is a large subdivision of the university, which in the US might be called a school or college (bigger than a department).
- A major is your primary area of study, and it’s what your degree will be in.
- A minor is a secondary area of study, which doesn’t require as many total classes to complete.

- exercise 4L5 - What abbreviations could you use in your notes for these things?
- 1 apt / appt / appmt
- 2 bhr / bhvr (Many English words can be reliably abbreviated by removing vowels.)
- 3 cog neurosc / CNS / cog ns
- 4 bio sci
- 5 special [mortarboard picture] / spec degs
- 6 rqmt / req
- (In a course catalog, “prereq” and “coreq” are common abbreviations.)
- ---
- Listen to the conversation and take notes.
- exercise 4L6 - Use your notes to answer the detail and inference quesitons about the conversation.
- 1 c
- 2 a (The psychology department is in the Arts Faculty. There is no “Arts and Sciences” faculty, or else she wouldn’t have to switch.)
- 3 a d (“Losing credit” is not the same as “losing credits”, which are the “units” of study that you’ve done.)

- ---
- exercise 4L7 - Listen and take notes on another piece of paper.
- Then with your partner, use your notes to complete the outline on p. 232.
- 1. Study
- * participants
- - school children
- * method
- - measured body mass, did exercise to assess fitness, took a (cognitive) test
- * results
- - fittest students scored higher
- 2. Science behind results = process
- 1. move the muscles
- 2. produces IFG-1, which goes to the brain
- 3. increases the production of BDNF
- 3. BDNF = Brain-derived neurotrophic factor
- * promotes higher level thought
- * more exercise = more capacity to handle cognitive tasks
- * study: BDNF causes new brain cells and new connections between cells
- * chemical that facilitates learning
- ---
- exercise 4L8 - Answer the questions.
- 1 c
- 2 d
- 3 b
- 4 a c
- 5 a
